FREEDOM ~ A Memorial Dedication To My Father
$580 Raised of 3k goal
THE STORY
This is a story about a talented young man with a natural gift of beautiful music, artistry and his love for his father. As an only child, he grew up in a single parent home with a father who took pride in family. He worked hard everyday, took care of his parents, often time finding himself tired by the end of the day. Yet he always made time, took pride in cherishing precious moments with his son. Though he wasn't a musician himself, he had such a love for music and not only saw that same passion in his sons eyes but also the special gift he had for singing and creating melodies. His dad would sing all the old Motown hits as they danced the Temptations routines together, sometimes sitting on the couch for hours with a toy casio keyboard on his lap, and his son playing on a plastic string guitar, tinkering out melodies
THE REASON WHY
Why we need your support? Some time ago, faced with the tragic loss of his dad and realizing how little time we truly have with those we love, he sat out to produce an album in his dads honor. In 2024, while working on the project, personal tragedies struck again. Due to unforeseen circumstances, he suffered financial losses, and the loss of equipment. Having to pretty much start over - sadly the project was delayed. Through all of it, one of the most important things to him was to finish his dads project.
Inspired by so many wonderful memories, he put all of his heart into writing and producing Freedom. This project will actually be his first solo album as well so, it's special in many ways. For those who may not know, he's a very talented musician. If you enjoy the sound of a piano, an acoustic guitar, horns or the warm sound of a violins strings, I think you will enjoy this album.
THE VISION ~ WHAT FREEDOM IS TO HIM
The Freedom to show his dad and the world that he was listening. That he heard him, that he cherished those moments, and the memories. To proudly give honor and show sincere gratitude to and for a man who was always there, always providing, always inspiring and always believing in his son.
The Freedom to use this blessed platform to express himself and his love for his dad through one of the special things they shared most...MUSIC.
And finally, The Freedom to simply say, share and express a lot of the things that we thought time would always allow. To simply make his dad proud.
We really need your support to get him back in the studio to finish the project.

Hello my friend,
I recently lost my dad. He always wanted me to share my gifts of music and artistry with the world. As a memorial and an honor to him, my desire is to raise enough funds to complete the production of the album project, FREEDOM.
